PUMA: electric urban vehicle by GM and Segway

General Motors Corp. and Segway Inc. are working together to develop the two-wheeled, two-seat electric vehicle shown here.


The PUMA (Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility) is said to be a fast, efficient, inexpensive and clean alternative to traditional vehicles in an urban environment.


Segway makes the gyroscopically balanced scooter they call a people transporter. The PUMA is a Segway for two.

The Segway transports one rider in a standing position. The PUMA accommodates two people in a sitting position.
